Blog hop party again!!

so come join the fun and click on everyone's blogs and have a change to win lots of goodies.

(I won several nice little things, like charms, patterns etc.)

so here's my give away

I was wrecking my pregnant brain with that to give away.

so I came up with this:

A stuffed owl pin cushion ( I make these and have gotten lots of comments about them) YOU PICK THE COLOR!! I machine applique these now- this one is the first one I ever made and I changed the way I do it now.

A mini pattern for a table runner and mini quilt

and a few FQs

here's a few newer owls I made to show what the applique and eyes look like now

You don't HAVE to use it as a pin cushion, lots of kids like these, but lots of adult quilters do too :-)

I just love your owls! What a fun pincushion, and everyone needs several pin cushions! My students drive me crazy when they don't have one. I follow your blog, and now facebook, should be a fun blog hop!

I'm a follower, I think the owls would be neat with pockets to hold a seam ripper (not that WE would Ever need one) and small scissors. Let someone else win the drawing, I just want the owl pattern- cw

I can't follow on fb ... I don't have an account there so just one chance for following, but that's totally fine.I love those owls and Iwould certainly use it as pin-cushion doubling as woodoo object for a certain person, that looks very much like an owl.Thanks for the chance!

I have become a new follower. Your owls are do darn cute. I especially like the purple/blue owl. What a clever person you are. We have snow here in Sonora, CA so I am keeping myself safe, warm and busy entering the Blog Hop Party trying very hard to win one giveway.

I liked your page on facebook! Thanks for a chance to win your great giveaway! I have a feeling I'd loose the owl to my son. As he likes the animal pincushions and I'm not allowed to be mean and poke them with pins except during construction. He just picked out fabric to make a mouse pincushion, and we also make a ladybug pincushion just for him. :)

Hello I just joined your blog. I am so happy to be a new follower. I love your owls.My friend Wendy collects them so this would make the perfect birthday gift for her in May. Thanks so much for the chance to win. Peggy @ Pastimes Quilt Design

I am a follower. I love this owl. I have a 4 yr old son who loves "squishies" ie stuffed whatnots, so I'm afraid right now of using it as a pin cushion for fear of him scooping him up. BUt, Hootie would be great in appearing on my sewing table as a reminder for my son to "Give a Hoot and be careful cause Mommy is sewing". Then in a couple years, when he assists me more in the sewing process, we'll use him as a pincushion and pin away! Great owl!

Dear Bea: What lovely little owls. I love pin cushions. In our guild, we are doing pin cushion classes and a contest this summer on the cutest or best or whatever pin cushions...more like a pc show, really. Thanks for letting us visit. I'm a new follower.
